Hi,
I want to bump `jsonnet` version from 0.17.0 to 0.20.0 from the master
branch of the `guix` repository. I edited the version in
`gnu/packages/cpp.scm`:
(define-public jsonnet
(package
(name "jsonnet")
(version "0.20.0")
[snip]
))
*How do I test building/installing this change locally?*
Here what I tried so far:
1. Standing at the root of the `guix` repository, build with:
guix build -L . jsonnet
This failed:
```
guix build: warning: failed to load '(build-aux build-self)':
no code for module (build-aux build-self)
./build-aux/build-self.scm:19:0: warning: module name (build-self) does
not match file name 'build-aux/build-self.scm'
hint: File `./build-aux/build-self.scm' should probably start with:
(define-module (build-aux build-self))
guix build: All 92 channel news entries are valid.
guix build: warning: failed to load '(build-aux check-channel-news)':
no code for module (build-aux check-channel-news)
hint: File `./build-aux/check-channel-news.scm' should probably start
with:
(define-module (build-aux check-channel-news))
[snip]
guix build: warning: failed to load '(build-aux compile-all)':
```
2. Followed the contributing guide [1], I created a shell instead:
guix shell -C -D guix git help2man strace
./bootstrap
./configure --localstatedir=/var
This generated `pre-inst-env`, but `make` step failed with:
```
MAKEINFO doc/guix.de.info
contributing.de.texi:1659: @menu reference to nonexistent node
`Configuring Git'
contributing.de.texi:1660: @menu reference to nonexistent node `Sending
a Patch Series'
make[2]: *** [Makefile:5003: doc/guix.de.info] Error 1
```
So I was blocked to progress further :(
